Hello everyone, I am new to programming and platformIO.
Currently using PlatformIO on VS code, Mac OS High Sierra.
I have been working on this tutorial, esp8266 adafruitio dht
I can run it on Arduino IDE, but I cannot get platformIO to read my config.h
I added the config.h file under the lib tab in my project: lib-config-config.h
the error tells me that it can’t read a library that I’ve included in the config.h file
So what’s your file structure of the project? There is no lib-config-config.h file, only a config.h file. You should put that file in the same folder as your main sketch (under src/).
Otherwise you’ll have to show the full error message and give us a copy of your project.
Could you use pastebin.org (or a new post which uses Markdown for CPP code formatting) to make a copy of main.cpp, config.h and platformio.ini available?
I can successfully build your code when I put config.h in the src folder as I described above and explicitly add the library dependencies in the platformio.ini as
lib_deps =
Adafruit Unified Sensor
DHT sensor library
Adafruit IO Arduino
Adafruit MQTT Library

thank you so much for your time, it worked, I thought that I had to save it under the lib folder.
